Gretel Analytics in partnership with SAORSA Health Pty Ltd, Monash University and Peninsula Health has been awarded an ARIIA grant for their ‘Toolkit for building "social license" to implement activity monitoring in residential aged care settings’ project.
Emerging technologies offer the opportunity for enhanced monitoring of older adult activities in care settings. The technologies may have utility for detecting, predicting, and prevention of adverse events in resident care, while facilitating evaluation of innovations in models of care. However, technologies such as artificial intelligence processing of video camera footage.
This project seeks to:
- Develop realistic vignettes for how activity monitoring technologies may be implemented in residential aged care settings.
- Use these cases to undertake a multi-stakeholder acceptability analysis of activity monitoring technology data collection and use.
- Develop a toolkit that organisations can use to navigate the pathway to consumer, organisational and key stakeholder approval, attaining relevant approvals while also building social license to install and use activity monitoring data.
- Pilot test this toolkit for use in two locations with subsequent refinement of the toolkit.
- Disseminate the toolkit for broader use.
